Excellent Book on Biblical Apologetics

This is about my favorite book on Biblical Apologetics, or how to defend the claims of historic Christianity. Very easy to read, and very well researched and footnoted. I highly recommend it.

Excellent!

This was one of the very first books I read on defending the faith and it was a huge help to me, a former atheist, in answering many of the lingering questions I had after I became a Christian (Why does God allow evil and suffering? How do we know God exists? etc.)! I still refer people to it to this day for its conciseness and broad range of topics and challenges that it addresses. Highly recommended!

Handy little book

Dan Story does a fine job of sharing tips on how to share your story and your faith. It was excellent that he showed in the beginning when and when not to use Apologetics. Chapter 4 on Offensive apologetics was fatastic and has affected my approach in sharing with many people.He could have perhaps said more on the use of the Gifts of the sprit while witnessing (I have found healing and the word of knowlege to be very effective in such cases) but that was not perhaps the intention of his book and I realize that some of those who believe the gifts kicked the bucket with the original apostles might not have read all that he had to say.Good book. Get it and Put it into practice.

All that you will ever encounter

is covered in this book. You could spend your time pouring over a lot of lengthy works written to defend the faith, or you could read this. It is consice and practical in its approach to apologetics. I value this book far more than some of the massive tomes I've accumulated over the years. If you understand the reasons for Biblical Christianity given in "Defending Your Faith," you will not only be able to "refute those who contradict" (Titus 1:9) but your faith will be built up as well.

This book is excellent apologetics for everyone!

Dan Story handles the topic of presuppositions versus evidence, in a unique way. Christianity is based on facts that are tangible. Story says, "look at the evidence and make a decision." The questions of evil, reincarnation, the fate of those who never heard of Christ and the trinity are handled very well. Laymen and theologians will both love this book. Buy it now!!
